Dpshuler (talk · contribs) - YOUR DESCRIPTION OF THE USER Dpshuler (talk) 01:16, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

I accept my nomination. I have been an editor for about a year and a half. I try to edit in the time that I have. I am most involed in the Wikipedia:WikiProject Roller Coasters. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Roller Coasters only has one admin.(yes I check every user). I constantly check coaster pages for history and to check talk pages for user comments on page or requests for semi block. Roller coaster pages are always getting acciedentaly vandalised by fans saying its a great ride. Sometimes a page need to become semi blocked to let it just chill for a little. I dont make a lot of edits because most of the time I get on at hight and i'm too tired to make edits umless it's an undo. But when i do, i am always making major edits most of the time. I believe the Wikipedia:WikiProject Roller Coasters could really use another admin. for the good.

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?

A: Well i intend on working in the roller coaster area as i am part of the WikiProject Roller Coasters. There are not that many amin. in the roller coaster area and I would like to be one of the few. I would like to help out members who express that some pages should be blocked from edits or other things. I am not the most active article as i do have other things to do but i try to get on everyday and check my watchlist for edits or vandalism. Such an article may include Kingda Ka.

2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?

A: I am most proud of my Titan (roller coaster) article as I created it and it has become a very active article . It has been vandalised several times and has been expressed to be semi-blocked. I have also made almost all of the Six Flags Over Texas roller coaster articles. I try to help out Wikipedia:WikiProject Roller Coasters as much as i can.

3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?

A: I will admit that I had a fight at the begining that I made a mastake on editing with another user on an article that contained a ride with two different locations and we were fight over two different things. I apologized and now we are good friend.

Some of the links above, particularly to the candidate's editcount and contributions, were accidentally left as the default USERNAME included in the RFA template. I have corrected the error, and the count link above now correctly links to Dpshuler's actual edit count. UltraExactZZ ^Claims~ Evidence 01:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Support Haha, he has more article experience than many other admins, but ... erm ... yeah ... two wrongs don't make a right. Or do they? Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 01:38, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Your best article is a redlink? I don't think so. Paragon12321 (talk) 01:46, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. A lack of experience, not to mention this RFA is malformed. Useight (talk) 01:47, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Lacks experience. Suggest early close per WP:SNOW. κaτaʟaveno^T_C 02:07, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Needs to spend a great deal more time familiarizing himself with the project. Trusilver 02:10, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Hate to pile on, but far too little editing experience, including an almost total lack of experience in the Wikipedia: space, which is absolutely essential for admin consideration. Horologium (talk) 02:27, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
